What kind of character did you create on Skyrim? What skills have you honed? What does your character look like?

As a long time advocate and hard core fan of the Elder Scrolls saga I have devoted considerable NERD TREK resources to covering SKYRIM. Delving into the game was something I had been awaiting for quite some time.

Now that I have spent significant time in the world of Skyrim, I would like to share my character Kwusiel with you.

Kwusiel

Khajiit Level 30

Focus: Stealth

Three Highest Skills: Stealth 100
Lockpicking 100Archery 65

Weapon of Choice: Glass Bow of Shocks

Spell of Choice: Healing

Magical Item of Choice: Glass Bow of Shocks

Attitude: “If you fight for good I will not kill you… unless you find yourself between me and my quarry.”

Style of Play: 20% Wandering / 40% Quests / 40% Monster Hunter

Brief History: Kwusiel is Dovahkiin (Dragonborn) and although he accepts his chosen path he prefers to keep his options open.

In the past Kwusiel has slain entire contingents of guards and bandits stationed at remote forts in Skyrim just to test his skill in stealth and archery.

After encountering groups of giants and woolly mammoths in the wilderness, Kwusiel became addicted to tackling impossible combat challenges using physical terrain to his advantage. After many days of training he can now take down a group of mammoths and giants single handed without much trouble.

Dragon attacks no longer shake up Kwusiel and he has come to anticipate, even enjoy the roar of the great circling wyrm above.

Future plans: Seek out, join, and eventually become guildmaster of the Thieves Guild & Dark Brotherhood

Please take the time to share an image and description of your unique Skyrim character with all of us at NERD TREK!

History: Born Nerek Rowapen, one of those seventh son of a seventh son types. Grew up on a farm in a sheltered valley where he hunted and fished daily, you ate what you brought to the table in such a large family. Body toughened from fights among brothers and manual labor. Senses sharpened after long hunting trips some lasting more than a week. And mentally deft from dealings with fur traders and much bigger older brothers.
Left home at 15, after a fur trader mentioned wanting a body guard, passed through the various providences of Tamriel with various trading caravans. He grew clever and bold, even had the audacity to break the wrist of the Grey Fox in a dark bar in Hammerfell.
After six years of travelling Nerek went to the Imperial City and had a brief run in the arena though decided to leave after fighting three moon sugar addicts. He then found his way to Balmora and the Fighter’s Guild. After four years of service he was politely expelled after a drunken night in an orc bar lead to the guildmaster losing two fingers.
At 26 he sought to return to Skyrim to bring a rather hefty bag of septims to his family, but encountered trouble. Before reaching the border he endured bandits, wolves, trolls, and a pair of daedroth. After crossing the border of Skyrim he caught a falmer arrow laced with slowing posion in the calf, which prevented his escape from the Imperial army.
Current Status: Reclusive Thane of the majority of Skyrims Holds, prone to walk out of Riften one day and not be seen for weeks then randomly appear on the steps to The College of Mages with a bag full of rare artifacts. Spends days traverseing the wild lands embracing nature. Often found discussing philosphy with dragons, battles with Molag Bal, the intricatecies of a falling leaf with Azura, the concept of nothing with Hermaenus Mora. He is an epic adventure/battle seeker.
Fighting style: Sneak shot with bow until enemies are within 20 steps. At close range grandiose scorched earth magic warfare until everything is ashes or goo. (OR) Methodical unflinching killing via dual swords.
Future Plans : Reclaim Akavari (I have spend way too much time reading books in these games since Morrowind)
Axiom: “There needs to be something in Skyrim that scares the Thalmor enough to Keep them out, that something is me. Dovahkiin, Archmage, Champion, Listner, Nightingale, Legate, Minstrel, Ranger, but most importantly I am Nerek.”

History: Born in a distant Orismer stronghold, one of the last surviving ones outside of Skyrim, to the cheif of the village as his first son, and great-great-grandson Gortwog gro-Nagorm, Ug’Thruuch was sent out in the world to prove his worth, and ended up as a cheap mercenary for hire in Markarth, becoming fast friends with Vorstag and starting a partnership.

Soon after starting his partnership with Vorstag they are hired for a big job. To protect Ulfric Stormcloak and his friends. Soon after fighting his way through seas of Imperial Soldiers across the border a surprise giantattack knocks them out. Vorstag escapes with his life but there is a bounty on Ug’Thruuch’s head and they are captured by the Imperial Soldiers.

Fighting Style: Charge in and kill!

-Born in the 4th era Bernen Elanesse never knew his family, rumours among the people he stayed with spoke of bandits and others spoke of respected adventurers he did not wish to know he preferred to look to the future. Beren didn’t really have a reason coming to Skyrim other than a new beginning previously spending time in Cyrodiil he turned to petty crimes such as thieving and pickpocketing. After 10 years In Cyrodiil Beren decided to venture to Skyrim to begin a simple law abiding life.

– Beren was one of the best archers in Vallenwood as a boy and this gained him many riches of which his bow Uirepheleg and his knife Helechir, they were both granted through competition and are feared across the whole of Tamriel. Beren only has two possessions from his family his mothers Circlet (Cuchen) and his Fathers Ring (Curestil).

– Now in Skyrim Beren looks for adventure in every corner assisting citizens until his last breath to try and reserve some family dignity and pride.
